Patch for 325.08 on Linux 3.10

Here is a patch that allows for the installation of Nvidia 325.08 on the newly-released Linux 3.10.
3.10.patch.txt (16.8 KB)

how do you patch .run file ?

I get this
can’t find file to patch at input line 4
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

|diff -U 3 -H -d -r -N – nv-i2c.c.orig nv-i2c.c
|— nv-i2c.c.orig 2013-07-01 21:45:45.241886356 -0400

+++ nv-i2c.c 2013-07-01 21:38:49.532484245 -0400

here is a -p1 patch from unpacked package root.

In fact I had only to change 2 lines from the 319.23 patch
nvidia-drivers-linux-3.10.patch.txt (17.2 KB)

How do I apply this? Thanks!

  1. cd into the unpacked archive
  2. patch -p1 < file

Thanks, patch worked fine. My htpc is now using kernel 3.10 and vdpau is working like a champ! :)

In my experience, I had to change 6 lines in the nvidia-drivers-linux-3.10.patch.txt because I’m using the latest 325-08 driver. Patch was successful :-)

@Robert_SoCal: Great! I’m also using the latest 325-08 driver!

But: Can we get a little bit more details? Or better a new patch-file?

The result of the last patch (nvidia-drivers-linux-3.10.patch.txt):

Thank you for help!

Created a patch to fix a compilation error on the latest mainline Linux Kernel (global variable num_physpages has been removed).

I noticed that my patch only works on the development kernel at [url]https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/[/url] but not on the 3.10 stable release. Use nvidia-drivers-linux-3.10.patch.txt for the 3.10 stable kernel.

Hello, i apply the patch and Give me this error

Thanks!!

OK, here’s what I did in patching the 325.08 driver:

  1. Extract the Nvidia driver by typing “NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-325.08.run --extract-only”

  2. Then copy patch program “nvidia-drivers-linux-3.10.patch.txt” into the unpacked directory.

  3. Open the patch program and change the following lines:

diff -ur -X - NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-319.17-no-compat32.orig/kernel/nv-i2c.c NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-319.17-no-compat32/kernel/nv-i2c.c
— NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-319.17-no-compat32.orig/kernel/nv-i2c.c 2013-04-26 00:22:30.000000000 -0400
+++ NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-319.17-no-compat32/kernel/nv-i2c.c 2013-05-13 05:20:55.571981365 -0400

into:

diff -ur -X - NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-325.08.orig/kernel/nv-i2c.c NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-325.08/kernel/nv-i2c.c
— NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-325.08.orig/kernel/nv-i2c.c 2013-04-26 00:22:30.000000000 -0400
+++ NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-325.08/kernel/nv-i2c.c 2013-05-13 05:20:55.571981365 -0400

  1. Then perform the same action on these lines:

diff -ur -X - NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-319.17-no-compat32.orig/kernel/nv-procfs.c NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-319.17-no-compat32/kernel/nv-procfs.c
— NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-319.17-no-compat32.orig/kernel/nv-procfs.c 2013-04-26 00:22:30.000000000 -0400
+++ NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-319.17-no-compat32/kernel/nv-procfs.c 2013-05-22 04:52:45.229495748 -0400

Change to:

diff -ur -X - NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-325.08.orig/kernel/nv-procfs.c NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-325.08/kernel/nv-procfs.c
— NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-325.08.orig/kernel/nv-procfs.c 2013-04-26 00:22:30.000000000 -0400
+++ NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-325.08/kernel/nv-procfs.c 2013-05-22 04:52:45.229495748 -0400

  1. Then SAVE your changes and then patch the file by typing “patch -p1 < nvidia-drivers-linux-3.10.patch.txt”

  2. At this point, ALL of the Hunk files should have patched successfully.

  3. Now you can compile the Nvidia 325.08 driver by running “nvidia-installer”

This patch works for me Thanks!!!

i got os-interface error too.

I’ on kernel 3.10.0+

Use the patch nvidia-drivers-linux-3.10.patch.txt

with the instrution from Robert_SoCal
Sorry for my English

@Robert_SoCal: Thanks a lot! But it was my mistake (I’d drunken three or four glasses of redwine!): I’d forgotten, to change to unpacked archiv. The patch works very fine!

LOL - yeah that red wine will do a number on ya just about every time :-) Very glad to offer assistance on getting the patch file to finally work.

Hello all,

I followed the steps in message #12 and the patch could be applied. But now I receive another error while running the nvidia-installer:

Use mlau’s patch from this thread: [url][SOLVED] Linux 3.10/3.11 incompatibility: In function &lsquo;nv_i2c_del_adapter&rsquo; error - Linux - NVIDIA Developer Forums. As of this morning, it was working for me with 3.10.0-1-08587-g496322b-dirty.

Hi gun26,

unfortunatetely, the patch didn’t help. It seems that I’m back to the first errors the thread has started with.
